<refsect1 id="description"><title>Description</title>
<para>
<function>glGetBufferSubData</function> returns some or all of the data from the buffer object currently
bound to <parameter>target</parameter>. Data starting at byte offset <parameter>offset</parameter> and
extending for <parameter>size</parameter> bytes is copied from the data store to the memory pointed to by
<parameter>data</parameter>. An error is thrown if the buffer object is currently mapped, or if
<parameter>offset</parameter> and <parameter>size</parameter> together define a range beyond the bounds
of the buffer object's data store.
</para>

<refsect1 id="notes"><title>Notes</title>
<para>
If an error is generated,
no change is made to the contents of <parameter>data</parameter>.
</para>
</refsect1>
<refsect1 id="errors"><title>Errors</title>
<para>
<constant>GL_INVALID_ENUM</constant> is generated if <parameter>target</parameter> is not
<constant>GL_ARRAY_BUFFER</constant>, <constant>GL_ELEMENT_ARRAY_BUFFER</constant>,
<constant>GL_PIXEL_PACK_BUFFER</constant>, or <constant>GL_PIXEL_UNPACK_BUFFER</constant>.
</para>
<para>
<constant>GL_INVALID_VALUE</constant> is generated if <parameter>offset</parameter> or
<parameter>size</parameter> is negative, or if together they define a region of memory
that extends beyond the buffer object's allocated data store.
</para>
<para>
<constant>GL_INVALID_OPERATION</constant> is generated if the reserved buffer object name 0 is bound to <parameter>target</parameter>.
</para>
<para>
<constant>GL_INVALID_OPERATION</constant> is generated if the buffer object being queried is mapped.
